In India, the violation of women's fundamental rights
through humiliation, violence, physical and emotional torture has become
common. In our society, violence against women is bursting. Many women suffer
from the domestic violence, beaten, tortured and killed. In the tribal belts,
the issue regarding harassment and violence are common, but it is also
happening in cities, towns, and metropolitans.
Uttar Pradesh police started Women Power Line 1090 number,
especially for harassed women. The power line number 1090 is for empowering
women in case of emergency. Women and girls of Uttar Pradesh, who are often
facing the stalking, molestation, violence, etc. are now raising their voice
and fight against the crime because of the Women Power Line. Unique features of
the Women Power Line 1090 were encouraging the women and girls to fight against
the offences. The women and the teen girls in Uttar Pradesh can access the Women
Power Line service from anywhere in the state and file their complaints. The
trained force of women constable attends the call of the victim and ensures
their full protection at the time of emergency.
During emergency, the Women Power Line service ensures the
safety of the women. Women Power Line empowers women and encourages those women
who fight against the harassment and humiliation they face. The Power Angles of
the Women Power Line (teen girl volunteers of WPL) empower women. They educate
the rural women and girls, for using mobile phones, so that they can contact
the police at the time of emergency. Women Power Line creates awareness for the
women empowerment and provides protection to the women and girls at the time of
emergency. The Power Angles of the Women Power Line motivate women and girls to
inform the Women Power Line service immediately about any unsocial behavior
they are facing.
WPL has given the responsibility to the women counselors to
attend the call of the victim. The girls and woman without any hesitation speak
their problem to the female counselors. The women constable of the WPL
patiently listen the problems of the victim and counsels them. The identity of
the victim is never disclosed by the member of the Women Power Line service.
The victim does not need to write any formal letter for registering a
complaint. The member of WPL never calls the victim to the police station. They
update their work progress through SMS and the telephone concerning their
complaint. The Women Power Line members remain in touch with the victim until
the case is completely resolved.
The four digit number 1090 may appear banal to many. But
lots of women and girls refer their strength through the WPL number 1090. The
members of WPL empower women, provide strength and support them to bravely
fight against the crime instead of silently ignoring them. Women and girls
without hesitation, dial the number 1090 to register the complaint against the
offences they face.
